Emain Macha
Contents
Description
A lakeside city surrounding the Sen Lake.
Emain Macha suffered through many years of turmoil due to foreign imperial rule and the Fomor Clan invasion. Reconstructed to its former splendor and revived as an important cultural center, Emain Macha is famous for the Knight's Templar, a place of honor for courageous and legendary heroes.[1]

Emain Macha is a city which sits on the northern edge of Lake Sen in central Uladh. Famous for its magnificent art and architecture, the city was long ruled by the lord of Emain Macha. |
The westerly sea wind from the east causes heavy rainfall over Dunbarton and subsequently loses most of its moisture content in Antrim Mountains. Then, the wind picks up additional water vapor from rivers surrounding Antrim Mountains and arrives in Emain Macha and Tara. Thus, the precipitation is uniform year-round. The pleasant climate also contributes to a growth in the population and the size of the city.
Osna Sail, to the north-east, connects Emain Macha to the city of Dunbarton, while the Blago Prairie to the west leads to Uladh's capital city, Tara. Coill Dungeon can be found located to the north-west, While Rundal Dungeon can be found to the east of the city.
The second largest cathedral in Uladh exists here, and functions as a major congregation for followers of the Church of Lymilark. A magic school formerly stood in the current location of Paladin training grounds, but it was closed under unknown circumstances.
Due to its balmy climate and high precipitation, Emain Macha exports corn in vast quantities.
The Emain Macha Watchtower has a Viewscope, which enables a short cutscene displaying the highlights of the city, as well as a Telescope.
There are three cutouts that can be found around the town: Succubus Signboard, Imp and Golem Cutout, and Nao Billboard.
The town is also well known for its nightclub the Bean Rua, also known as the "paradise of red-haired ladies".
Northwest of the city lies the Paladin Training Grounds, where recruits train to become Paladins in order to serve and fight for Morrighan.
The Advancement Test Hall can be found to the north of the city.
In the southwestern corner of Emain Macha lies the Puppet Workshop, where one can learn the art of Puppetry. A Steam Oven, a Dry Oven, and several Carpentry Workbenches also stationed there.
Emain Macha also holds the Emain Macha Cooking Contest every Samhain (Saturday) in the Town Square.

Trivia
- Far south of Emain Macha, there is a small island that cannot be reached under normal circumstances. The only identifying feature of this island is that it has a sign that contains a single, four lettered word marked as XXXX.
- Using the Telescope at the top of the Observatory will reveal that a series of numbers is printed on the sign. However, the numbers change each time the cutscene is viewed.
- During Generation 22, James explains that the island where the signpost lies has ties to The Tragedy of Emain Macha. The signpost has a magic spell cast on it, which may explain why the numbers on it change.
- Emain Macha (pronounced /awən maxə/) is based on a real-life site.
- Macha refers to both the Goddess Macha and the word macha, which refers to a cattle-field or plain.
- The exact meaning of the word Emain is debated; the words twin and brooch are given in various stories. It may instead be a derivation of an older word that meant holy mound.
- Using the Macha the Goddess of Destruction Keyword on Delen in-game reveals that she believes the word Emain means another body or twin.
- The Milletian's note in Macha According to Emain Macha suggests that they take away from this conversation that Emain Macha means Macha's Incarnation.
